Amazing place!!

The house was wonderful. Just a short walk to the beach and easy access to shopping and restaurants. Everything you needed for a comfortable stay was provided from beach items to bathroom towels to a well stocked kitchen. We came for a wedding, but the stay on Lido Key was the icing on the cake.
